Truth of the Prince; Roscosmos; Danone; Girkin; South Africa; and the Crime from Which All Other Crimes Flow.
⚡️When Ruschist dictator's body-double Putin claimed he / Ruschia is a truth teller, he was attempting two feats:
First, he’s attempting (yet failing) to counteract the situation I identified three weeks before the coup.
There's now two arbiters of what is true in Russia - The Chef of Disinfolklore, the Chef Saucerer AND the Chief Sorcerer Putin himself. Right is being defined by two distinct forces.
The second task the Chief Sorcerer is trying to achieve is to reclaim what is the supreme value above all which an Indo-European monarch must model: truthfulness.
The shaman trickster among Indo-European leaders is a perennial character in Indo-European culture: Hitler too was perceived as a clown. It was the devil's disguise.
Certain such players also are Sovereigns, like Putin, Hitler, Johnson, Sunak, Orban, Trump, Modi, Xi,... For them the truth is what they declaim. It's unhinged from any substance.
The models for monarchs who are masters of this Magico-Religious aspect in Indo-European culture include Donn (Ireland), Whodanhaz (Germanic), Odin (Norse), Woden (Anglo-Saxon), Yima and Ahryaman (Iran), Romulus / (r)Ymus (Rome), and Yama (Indic).
Yima, Yama, Romulus, Odin, and Donn's supreme self-sacrificial act, as recorded in very ancient texts, is a prideful speech in which they, untruthfully, place themselves on a level with deities.
Then, they lose everything. It is the fundamental lesson for leaders of Indo-European cultures.
Typically, as with Donn, Yima, Odin, Romulus/(r)Ymus and Yama, "first kings" of different Indo-European cultures are the first self-sacrificing monarch whose sacrificial death enables the culture that follows them to thrive.
Typically, they also become their cultures' Lord of Death who welcomes those who die after them into the Otherworld (decodingtrolls.substack.com/p/indo-europea…).
The Wanger Nazi army unit worship Odin (after whom our Wednesday is named) the Germanic deity of the Magical aspect of the Indo-European Sovereignty function. They envision sacrificial death on the battlefield as an offering to Odin. And that when they die they will be greeted by Odin.
Proper exercise of Sovereignty in Indo-European culture requires mastery (magistery) of the Juridical AND this magic-religious aspect of Sovereignty, though.
Only rule that integrates such dual mastery is truthful sovereignty.
Truth is the highest value in leadership in the Indo-European cultural zone, as set out in ancient Irish, Indian, and Iranian texts.
A land ruled by a monarch who violates this requirement for ethical or truthful rule becomes a Waste Land.
Putin, Johnson, The Chef of Disinfolklore, Orban (of course is from outside Indo-European culture which is why his declamations on Ukrainian sovereignty are so culturally inappropriate), Trump and other populists have mastered the Magical / trolling realm of leadership.
They can enspell 🪄their subjects. They can troll (some of) their populations into agreeing to mad policies.
But they do not understand or practise what laws, such as the Geneva Conventions, international law, or human rights laws require. These are todays standards against which magistery of the juridical aspect of sovereignty are judged.
President Zelenskyy is Magi of both aspects of the sovereignty function, and he rules truthfully. Ukraine will prevail. And Muscovy will be a Waste Land.
As many of us who understand how to interpret Indo-European mythology (whether contemporary like the Disinfolklore.net / mythology that got and kept Johnson, Trump, Putin, et al in power or deep millennia-old cultural literary artefacts "elected") forecast, it's simple lies which are ALWAYS their undoing.
Reorientation of whole States according to such lies turns them into Waste Lands of death, pestilence, and worse.
Unless, we recognise them for what they are despite their disguises, and stand up to them.
Here, in the words of the author of Defying Hitler, written in 1939. Before the holocaust. tl;dr: it's these clowns operating solely in the Magico-Religious realm that we need to worry about.
"“There are few things as comic as the calm, superior indifference with which I and those like me watched the beginnings of the Nazi revolution in Germany, as if from a box at the theater. It was, after all, a movement with the declared intention of doing away with us. Perhaps the only comparably comic thing is the way that now, years later, Europe is permitting itself exactly the same indifferent attitude, as though it were a superior, amused onlooker, while the Nazis are already setting it alight at all four corners.”
⚡️Russia's space agency Roskosmos is reportedly evaluating options for using space rockets to drop aerial bombs on Ukraine from orbit.
Ex-head of Muscovy's space agency Rogozin was "injured in the shelling of a hotel in Donetsk. Rogozin was wounded in the buttocks, shrapnel wounds to the soft tissues of the head.
It was said that Wanger Nazis gave Ukraine coordinates.
The Russian official charged with investigating whether or not Wanger Nazis betrayed Rogozin and his buttocks himself died under mysterious circumstances.
Muscovy had appointed Rogasin as curator of occupied Crimea and other parts of Ukraine.
⚡️Someone asks me:
>What is your opinion on why war criminal Girkin is allowed to criticise Putin so directly?
This isn’t the 1st time, but probably the most direct attack
Surely if Putin was in full control of FSB he’d have found Girkin and taken him out?
⚡️Strelkov / Girkin brand models the essential grievance-mining aspect of Ruschist speech. So that's valuable.
Gives the illusion of "free speech" / muddies the waters.
The "Girkin/Strelkov" brand is one of Ruschia's main means of smuggling Disinfolklore into non-Ruschist info-space.
Though when the Chef takes over that brand will be taken over and the people behind it, like all those in the FSB, will be purged. 1m+ Ruschists will be sacrificed to establish the Chef's authority.
They want to preempt it, by jettisoning Chief Sorcerer first, perhaps, is my best guess 🤷🏽♀️
⚡️Arresting Vladimir Putin would amount to a declaration of war on Russia, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa wrote in court papers released today
Hogwash. Apartheid was introduced into Africa, after a white supremacist government (just like Russia) breached international law and enlarged Parliament.
CyrilRamaphosa owes Ukraine for supporting the armed struggle. In Stealing Valour Muscovy pretends it deserves all the credit for the USSR's support for the armed struggle.
Inviting @SouthAfrica and @CyrilRamaphosa to get behind my campaign to expel Russia from @G20, and admit Chile.
Russia doesn't even qualify for @G20 membership - according to @JeffSonnenfeld @YaleSOM Russia's economy is now smaller than @ChileMFA.
⚡️ANC Denouncing International Criminal Court Statute- Cruel Irony.
Apartheid was deemed constitutional after South Africa's government enlarged Parliament. Here's how my law teacher at Cambridge told the tale in 1998 (medium.com/@StephenDougla…):
“Right, magic girl and boys what are we doing this week? Parliamentary Sovereignty… We prefer to talk about Parliamentary Supremacy in Cambridge, don’t we?…
“Now what happened in South Africa in 1932?… Is apartheid unconstitutional?
“Chief justices a, b and c stood up to the might of those fascists who wanted to legalise apartheid.
"Two of their sons were at Emmanuel when I was an undergraduate… In the end the government introduced an Act of Parliament that enlarged the upper house. They pushed the damn thing through and darkness returned to Africa…
“You see judges can only do so much, they can only keep the politicians at bay for a certain time. Sometimes it’s quite long enough, other times -and these are the times that matter- the judge’s power is eliminated. Parliament or the prime minister changes the law and the most terrible things happen…
They killed one of my boys in Chile in 1973. Why? Because he stood up to them, that’s why. So do you think this could happen here boys and girl? Well?”
The three of us were terrible silent. A gentle breeze wafted in the scent of wisteria through the open window. Notes fluttered. Six pm chapel bells. The choir practising. A girl cried across Front Court ‘Come on, Olympia. Hurry.’
“Of course it bloody well can.
“They’ll try anything. Anything, they can get away with. That’s why you are here, you know that don’t you? The moment you turn your back… But you’re not going to turn your backs, are you? I’m going to see to that…”
⚡️The CEO of Danone Russia, after it was effectively nationalized by the state, is now the deputy prime minister of Chechnya - Minister of Agriculture of the republic Yakub Zakriev - Who is also Kadyrov's nephew.
I expect Kadyrov's nephew applied for the job in the normal way.
You are probably suspicious it was nepotism.
He looks really on the ball, though.
How hard can it be to run the subsidiary of one of the world's most innovative and socially responsible companies?!
⚡️Crime of Aggression: Holding Russia To Account.
⚡️Crime of Aggression is the most serious crime in human civilisation. Since Nuremberg, no state has been tried for the crime.
"One of the compromises we are considering is the possibility of creating an “internationalized tribunal”, but not in Ukraine and not as part of the Ukrainian judicial system...
Establishing such a tribunal - a hybrid tribunal - as part of the Ukrainian system will require amendments to the Constitution, which is impossible under martial law...
the UN General Assembly will support the establishment of a tribunal in an internationally reputable jurisdiction...
We do not need a tribunal's decision in the name of Ukraine, we need a tribunal's decision in the name of the civilized world...
the special tribunal will be able to punish the leadership of other states for their participation in the war against Ukraine and for committing acts of aggression..."
